Effectiveness of endovascular therapy using stents in a patient with celiac artery compression syndrome due to the median arcuate ligament: A case report

Celiac artery compression syndrome (CACS) is a disease caused by celiac the median arcuate ligament (MAL), resulting in intestinal ischemic symptoms. However, clear method for invasive treatment of CACS has not yet been established because limited indications. In particular, only few reports endovascular therapy (EVT) using stents as initial are available. Here, we report case where EVT was performed stent artery, good outcomes. A 59-year-old male patient presented to our hospital with postprandial abdominal pain and diagnosed MAL-induced since contrast computed tomography examination showed stenosis origin. He aware symptoms; therefore, decided treat an treatment. bare metal placed whose lumen well dilated intravascular ultrasound. Consequently, he no longer felt had patency after 15 months. Minimally may be considered first-line CACS.Learning objectiveThe efficacy from established. Specifically, unknown. We can safely perform placement ultrasound maintaining long-term patency. Therefore, minimally CACS.
